The news of Benjamin consuming the chaste concoction ignited a fire within Victoria, driving her to escalate her plans to new heights.
She knew she had to act swiftly to keep control of the situation. With a determined resolve, she reached out to Benjamin's personal doctor, a man who had always been loyal to the Stridha family.
She skillfully manipulated the conversation, weaving a web of deceit, and convinced the doctor that administering a shot to Benjamin was a necessary step. She framed it as a protective measure, something that would help Benjamin regain his strength and focus, all while ensuring he remained under her influence.
The doctor, trusting Victoria and believing in her intentions, reluctantly agreed to the deed. Little did he know that the shot would push Benjamin further into a state of confusion and vulnerability, keeping him trapped in the loops Victoria had carefully designed.
